A New Platform [Intro Post October]
On the Train
"Good morning passengers, it is day sixteen of the month of Horsehoe. Points have been updated on the system and new stock is available."
They have indeed and everyone can spend the morning shopping. Those who have been on the train a while will be expecting the second announcement that comes a few hours later.
"Shortly arriving into a designated void platform. Exit from void in ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one." A lurch and a jolt and they are soon surrounded by the fog that means they are at a platform. The first thing they may notice is that this platform is inside a basic shelter, making it warmer than the last couple at least.
As usual the first to leave the train notice nothing as they walk silently, rucksacks on their backs, towards the barriers. Adora, Alex Hashimoto, Catra, Cloud Strife, Elizabeth Midford, Feanor, Gerome, Gladiolus Amicitia, Glimmer, Ifrit, Isabella D’Oro, Maru, Nari Reno, Noctis Lucis Caelum, Prompto Argentum, Scorpia, Siobahn Chereshei, SXT-2, Tamamo-no-Mae, Tony Stark, Uta, Zidane Tribal
But on the platform itself there are many new faces. Wearing hoodies in all four colours in various states of confusion.
For New Passengers
At first all they can see is steam. Billowing around them as they come to their senses. The second thing they will notice is it is gloomy, even without the steam and fog. They are in a wooden building, open to the tracks on one side. It in a creaky shelter, cobwebs hang from the rafters and there is a peculiar whistle as wind finds its way through the cracks.
They are standing, in clothes that are not their own, styles they might not even recognise. They are carrying a rucksack on their back. For a moment it seems to just be them, alone in the white haze but then the steam begins to fade and they realise they aren’t alone.
The platform is not large and it holds nineteen figures all facing the tracks, all dressed in cargo trousers and hoodies. Both left and right the tracks disappear into the mist. Then there is a roaring sound and out of the fog arrives a train. Jet black with gold writing on the side. The Voidtrecker Express. There is a hiss as the doors slide open and out into the gloom step a selection of people. Some are human, some are less so. Most are wearing the same hoodie in one of the four colours, red, orange, blue and purple though some are sporting different clothes in a variety of styles.
The Train
The doors hiss open. Those from the train may encourage those on the platform to board. It’s not like there is anywhere else to go and even if there was, you feel a pull. A need to board, a feeling that staying on the platform would not be a good thing. If that is not enough, there are plenty of people on the platform now, to encourage them onto the train.
Indeed whereas usually there is plenty time for people to be met and brought slowly onto the train, the whistles blow a lot quicker this time, as if hurrying the passengers along.
Each ICP shows the same message and next to the screens there are stacks of leaflets written by those on the train, with further information. The store rooms have been restocked, with… teddy bear shaped luncheon meat being the main ingredient to be found. There are plenty of other staples.
A new carriage has been added, those that go to investigate will find a room full of lockers, designated as the Armoury. Even for passengers without weapons it is somewhere to secure possessions. There are instructions on how to use the lockers and enough for everyone to claim one.
New passengers will find their tickets allow them into their cabins. They may need to negotiate for beds, especially if they want a top bunk!
Room is tight but there are storage cubbies at the head of each bed, beds fold up and the bottom bunks double as benches for the small table. There is storage under those benches and you will hopefully find a pillow for your bed if it has not been nabbed by a roommate, there are also spare blankets for if it gets cold.
Departure
A second horn sounds over the noise of the hail stones to encourage any stragglers braving the snow and the doors slide shut. Veteran passengers know what will happen next, they may wish to brief their new companions.
The train sets off, the fog obscuring the view as it picks up speed.
"Welcome aboard, passengers of the Voidtrecker Express." A female-coded artificial sounding voice echoes throughout the train. "Please take the time to read the passenger information displayed on the Information and Communication points and familiarise yourself with the layout and emergency exits."
The train begins to tilt, leaving the ground and rising up into the fog filled sky.
"Entrance into Voidspace imminent. New passengers are advised to remain seated. Entry into Voidspace in ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one."
A shudder, a jolt, a lurch to the left. A flash of light, colourful and blinding. As quick as it happens it is done. The train seems to steady. The fog from the windows is gone now, replaced with a kaleidoscope of ever changing colours.
Welcome to the Void!

Your virus's effects only work on monsters that were on the field, then in my deck and hand. In other words, if I summon a monster with more attack now, then it won't be affected by the virus. Isn't that right?
no subject
no subject
[Rei slams a card into her Disk.]
Monster Reborn! The monster I revive is the one you sent to the graveyard with Fusion Guard earlier... Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!
[The mighty three-headed dragon roars, rising from the ground, and...]
Equip card, Happy Marriage!
[Bells ring.
The three heads of the Ultimate Dragon lower, investigating this Maiden, who opens her arms, and hugs one of the heads. And another, she strokes the bridge of its face, and the last, she scratches under the chin.
The dragon huffs in acceptance, and lifts her up. Maiden in Love now stands atop the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's back.
ATK: 4900.]
With Ultimate Dragon gone from the graveyard, your Deep-Eyes White Dragon loses the target for its effect, so its attack becomes zero... And that means it's as good as a direct attack! Maiden in Love attacks Deep-Eyes White Dragon!
Ultimate Burst Stream of Love!
[The two side heads of the Ultimate Dragon stretch around, forming a heart shape around Maiden in Love.
The last head charges its attack, firing it off.... and the laser it shoots from its mouth is pink, giving off a heart-shaped aura, using Maiden in Love's power.]
no subject
He's still aware enough to observe the 'marriage'. What's left of his face muscles twists, though it's unclear if that's an involuntary shiver or what.
He sneezes. ]
no subject
[Alexis can't help but snicker as the "Ultimate Burst Stream of Love" hits her and she goes flying back. It's objectively the most hilarious way for her to go out, at least. And she honestly has a bit more respect for Rei now, even though Alexis has to admit she's more than a little bit rusty and has no idea how to pilot Kaiba's deck.]
Alright, alright, I'll be a good sport, nya.
[Indeed, Alexis freezes herself from the neck-down and releases Kaiba from her icy grip. At least she leans herself against the wall and crosses her arms before she's frozen in place.]
...Nya, it's been too long since I've had that much fun.
Good game... Rei, right?
no subject
[Once she's sure Kaiba's free and safe, she's going to let her Disk deactivate, banishing the monsters, and-
Run towards Alexis.]
Free yourself, too! I didn't do this for you to get frozen over instead!
no subject
Disk isn't rated...for ice...
no subject
[She sighs.]
And yes, before you ask, I would've unfrozen President Dragonfucker over there too, nya.
[Beat.]
After watching him squirm for a minute.
[Her knifelike smile returns.]
Okay, maybe several minutes, but I wouldn't have put him in the hospital for more than, nya, a day tops. That's less than what my "admirers" got away with when I roughed them up.
[Did you think those steel knuckles were for nothing, Rei?]
But if you insist... fine. [The ice melts and evaporates, and Alexis steps forward, casually stretching.] Nya, we've gotta do this again sometime. That was fun!
Preferably while finding another excuse to freeze him up, but it's fine if he doesn't want to play.
[How much Alexis is joking is up to Rei to decide.]
no subject
I'll never turn down a duel, but- Wait, admirers? Wait, that's not important! I still don't understand why you're not Asuka, or.... For that matter, why are you a cat?! Is that- How does that work?! That's way beyond just a gimmick, so!
no subject
[ Kaiba's managed to force himself off the floor by now, hunched over in a dining booth.
Still, he glares daggers, though he lifts them when calling to Rei. ]
Told you. Alt timelines.
no subject
[Pause.]
Is that where Professor Daitokuji came from?!
no subject
...wait, if you're talking about Professor Banner, that actually makes- no, wait, that's not what we're discussing, nya. [Alexis shakes her head.] All of... this came from after I was kidnapped from home the first time. The trains is my second time around this particular block.
I'm still not sure if it was that bastard tanuki's fault or not, but it looks like I'm stuck with the catgirlism permnyantely anyways.
...and also saying nya permnyantely like an idiot, [she groans as the doors begin to unfreeze.]
no subject
[ Glare. Hiss. This is not the sick burn your cold-addled mind thinks it is, Kaiba. ]
And will someone please explain what I did? Did I sabotage you family's company, or something?
no subject
.... Er, wait a minute, I guess if you're not Asuka, then he might not be Seto Kaiba to you?
no subject
In any case, sure enough, the kitchen carriage door is cold to the touch! So for a bit, Red Eyes is calmly blowing on the thing to warm it up.
Right about now, the ice on the duelist-side of the door will be melting into nice warm water...
At which point the door opens.] Hohhh-! Got it..!
Aouurn!
[Red Eyes, as much as he is mostly head and neck poking out of shadow, is quick to go over to Kaiba. A blanket follows- tossed 'blindly' by Katsuya, and landing on the dragon like a strange attempt at a sheet ghost.] Yo, Kaiba..! Figured y' might be cold..! [Now, these two...] Got another blanket f'r you too!
[Tossing at Rei now...!]
...Not you though, y' seem like yer good.
no subject
[ He's fine. Honestly. But there's a noticeable head-jerk at the sound of the door opening, and Kaiba doesn't seem surprised at all to see a looming Red Eyes head rush over to him...
Instead, he laughs at the silly sheet dragon through his sneezing. He pushes out of the booth to awkwardly swaddle himself in the blanket and curls around the dragon's neck. His warm breath washing over him is a welcome relief. ]
Good boy. Thanks, Jou. You and your sense of timing...
[ It's not a dig, shockingly. He's appreciative. ]
no subject
Can't say I expected that, honestly, but nya. Good on you.
And nya, you just founded the academy that put me through Hell for two years and ruined my life. Nyathing more than that~
no subject
no subject
NYH-
N-Nah, we jus' ain't at each other's throats, trus' me on tha'..! [he wheezes, before blinking.] ...huh, they act'lly went an' made tha' duel school though..?
I r'member th' Tenma's pressurin' my world's S- Kaiba abou' findin' a way t' get kids convinced t' go...
[Uhhhhhh...] ...Kinda feel like I'm missin' somethin', anyway...
[A beat, and he adds.] ....'s Jonouchi, by th' way. 'Joey's jus' what tha' jerk from th' states came up w'th.
no subject
[ Even as out of it as he is, Kaiba is awake enough to catch onto that...and awake enough to stop from breaking his promise. He lifts his head from Red Eyes' neck to stare at them. ]
Look, I'm sorry your life was ruined, but I'm not the Kaiba who did that. And our timelines are apparently divergent enough that I might never do it. If we remember any of this after the train kicks us out...
no subject
[Rei cuts in, suddenly extremely alarmed.]
I ended up talking to Professor Zweinstein some while you had him on the island and no way, bad news, even if you think it's an alternate timeline please don't risk causing a paradox!
no subject
You think I like the place where the professors did nothing to stop the line of creeps that sexually harassed me practically every day, paid no attention to the frankly ridiculous number of supernatural mishaps and student shenanigans that got dozens of people hurt every month, took away my brother after some creepy blood ritual, reintroduced me to my brother after I forgot how terrible he was, enforces a highly classist house system that punishes people for low finances and poor grades when they should be getting helped not hindered, and literally let the dangerous cult leader who brainwashed two thirds of the student body, INCLUDING ME, in the door just because he asked nyicely, and who STILL hasn't taken care of him last time I checked, NYA NYA NYA?!
no subject
no subject
Calmly, he steps toward Alexis, stopping a few feet away. He'll let Kaiba explain the timelines not being an issue to Rei. If it were, they'd already be in a mess. Rei wouldn't even exist Now. But that said.]
You gonna seriously blame th' guy who ain't from yer world on it? [He asks calmly, looking to the girl with his hands in his sweater pocket.] 'Cause I dunno abou' you, but both th' one here an' th' one I know wouldn've stood for any 'f tha' crap, after what happened t' us.
[A deep breath- even Red Eyes pauses from demanding attention, curled around Kaiba to stare with wide eyes.]
Calm th' hell down. Take it from th' guy workin' jobs t' get through highschool.
[If anyone knows the shitty balance of poor finances and weird spooky magic, it's him.]
